The redesigned profile fields are now on mastodon.social.
I wasn't too sure when I first saw the mockups, but I'm starting to like this.

@stefan Not of fan of buttons/box styles, like the previous change with hashtags, nor this link box/button design, esp when things are hidden behind a +#. Not a fan at all.
For the record, I whined at Google's Material Design when they started it and its been a 12 year old whinefest. I despise box elements.
Luckily, we have a choice for other frontends if I want to install them or do a CSS override. I haven't looked at the PRs so I don't know if users will have a choice of profile styles when they get a finished release. I hope there are more choices.
@stefan note that this is a very early work in progress and not really ready for real usage and will contain bugs / unfinished things. But expect more changes to the profile screen in the coming week!
@renchap Yes, saw some other references to updated profile designs in recent commits, really excited to see what else the team is coming up with!
@stefan I'm fine with the new verification badge, it just removes the whole colour and boring plain ✅.
As for the table, it's now in column horizontal row with clickable "...more" into modal popup instead of plain multiple rows?
@shadow Yep.
You can visit any mastodon.social profile (you don't have to be logged in) and put this in the browser console:
localStorage.experiments = 'profile_redesign'
And refresh the page. To remove:
delete localStorage.experiments
@stefan Hey, wow - didn't know this was happening. What do they look like for verified links?
@tychotithonus See the GitHub link in my reply:
https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/37513
"Verification is not implemented yet as the designs are still being finalized."
@tychotithonus Actually, looks like there is an update on this already!

Looks nice!
